Ok..I have a 2005 Coupe with the blose system. Here is what hours of research have led me to come up:

Amplifier: Memphis Belle 16-MCH600 5 channel Amp (I like this b/c some thread said it will fit in the space where the current blose amp is. A big plus for me. And I don't want a 2 amp setup as I don't need a ton of bass.)

Front Components: JL VR 650 series or Infinity Perfect 6.1 or MB Quart RCE 216 (what do you guys think?)

Rear Panel Coax: JL VR 650 series or Infinity Kappa 62.5i (if they can fit) or MB Quart RKC 116 (what do you guys think?) I have read a lot of threads about some speakers not fitting. Any knowledge on whether the above three will fit?

Enclosure: Either the 4080 box or a similar box by UMG35

Subwoofer: Heard great things about the JL Audio 10w6 sub but don't know if the Belle's 5th channel will fully utilize it. Any other suggestions

LOC: What LOC would I need for this 5 channel setup? I have read good things about the Navone but its only a four channel LOC. What are my options on this?

Dynamatt: Guess I'll wait to hear the rattles before tackling this.

And no, I will not install this myself. If I buy all these things on my own, what is a fair amount for a shop to charge for installation? What about wiring for all this? I think I have this figured out at under $1500 with the installation. I want to keep it right around that if possible.

I know I have asked a ton of questions, but any advice on any part of this setup would be greatly appeciated. TIA

Jason

About the LOC,

You would only need a 2 or 4 channel LOC. L and R coming out of the Blose, either tapped into the front OR rear signal. If you go with a 4 channel, you'll just tap into the L and R front and L and R rear. I don't know the specs on the amp but the 5th channel would most likely be for a subwoofer, with more power output than the other 4 channels
